Filter for downtrend

  Hello, can someone help me create a filter :
  – which starts when a condition appears
  – which ends when another condition occurs.

  This filter will be included in a robot and will be used to take sales on a lower TF.

  The filter starts when :
  – the SMA7 > SMA20 AND the SMA7 turns down,

  The filter disappears when :
  – the SMA7 turns upwards

  I tried to create a code to accept trades only between these conditions but it doesn’t seem to work the way I want it to.

  Using graph it only shows the first condition and I can’t create an indicator that could color the background (with backgroundcolor) so I don’t realize where the error comes from.

  Maybe you should use a While loop but I haven’t found the solution.
  Here is the code:

  defparam cumulateorders = false SMA7 = Average[7](close) SMA20 = Average[20](close timeframe(daily) // ***************** FILTER START ******* // SMA7 > SMA20 C1 = (SMA7 > SMA20) // Downtrend start C2 = (SMA7[1] > SMA7[2]) AND (SMA7[1] > SMA7) // ***************** END OF FILTER ******* // End of Downtrendown C3 = (SMA7[1] < SMA7[2]) AND (SMA7[1] < SMA7) // ***************** FILTERSTART = C1 AND C2 ENDofFILTER = C3 ONCE TradeOn = 0 IF FILTERSTART AND Not OnMarket THEN TRADEON = 1 Endif IF (TradeOn = 1) AND ENDofFILTER THEN TradeON = 0 ENDIF timeframe(default) // Engulfing c4 = high>high[1] and close < low[1] ConditionsSell = (TradeOn = 1) AND C4 IF NOT ShortOnMarket AND ConditionsSell THEN SELLSHORT 1 CONTRACTS AT MARKET ENDIF SET TARGET pPROFIT 50 SET STOP pLOSS 20

  1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 51 52 53 54

  defparam cumulateorders = false     SMA7 = Average[7](close) SMA20 = Average[20](close   timeframe(daily)     // ***************** FILTER START *******   //  SMA7 > SMA20 C1 = (SMA7 > SMA20)   //  Downtrend start C2 = (SMA7[1] > SMA7[2]) AND (SMA7[1] > SMA7)     // ***************** END OF FILTER *******   //  End of Downtrendown C3 = (SMA7[1] < SMA7[2]) AND (SMA7[1] < SMA7)   // *****************   FILTERSTART = C1 AND C2   ENDofFILTER = C3   ONCE TradeOn = 0     IF FILTERSTART AND Not OnMarket THEN TRADEON = 1 Endif   IF (TradeOn = 1) AND ENDofFILTER THEN TradeON = 0 ENDIF     timeframe(default)   // Engulfing c4 = high>high[1] and close < low[1]   ConditionsSell =  (TradeOn = 1) AND C4   IF NOT ShortOnMarket AND ConditionsSell  THEN SELLSHORT 1 CONTRACTS AT MARKET ENDIF   SET TARGET pPROFIT 50 SET STOP pLOSS 20
